Podcasts about text messages

Sarah and Whitney explore how childhood patterns—like peacekeeping or fearing conflict—can fuel adult anxiety, especially around communication. They break down why delayed texts or unclear responses trigger worst-case thinking and share simple, effective tools to stop spirals, calm your nervous system, and stay grounded in relationships. A relatable, reassuring episode for anyone who's ever overthought a message or worried they did something wrong.

Newly released text messages between the parents of Anna Kepner's sixteen-year-old stepbrother reveal what they were really focused on in the hours after her body was found — and it wasn't grief.According to court filings in an ongoing custody battle, the suspect's mother texted that her son "just keeps repeating over and over he can't remember anything." The messages show discussions about keeping things quiet, damage control efforts while an eighteen-year-old girl lay dead. A former sheriff's detective who reviewed the texts said the family ran their own PR department. Both of the suspect's parents have acknowledged in court documents that he is a suspect in the FBI investigation.Anna Kepner was found on November 7th, 2025, stuffed under a bed on the Carnival Horizon cruise ship, wrapped in a blanket and covered with life vests. Her death has been ruled a homicide by mechanical asphyxiation. Three months later, her stepbrother appeared at Miami's James Lawrence King Federal Justice Centre facing multiple federal charges. Anna's father told the Daily Mail he was "unable to confirm or deny" that the charges include murder and rape — directly contradicting preliminary November findings indicating no signs of sexual assault.Behavioral evidence has taken on new weight in light of the potential charges. Court documents reference allegations of obsession, prior physical incidents in the home, and skipped medication on the cruise. Anna's ex-boyfriend's father has stated she was scared of her stepbrother. Her family has publicly accused the suspect's father of interfering with the investigation. Subpoenas have targeted Temple Christian School and Florida DCF.Anna wanted to join the Navy. She went on a family vacation and never came home. Prosecutors reportedly intend to seek adult charges. If granted, the sealed records open.#AnnaKepner #CarnivalHorizon #HiddenKillers #CruiseShipMurder #FamilyTexts #FBI #JusticeForAnna #HomicideInvestigation #CarnivalCruise #TrueCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

If you think the only great wine coming out of Bordeaux is red, you've got it wrong! When most people think of Bordeaux wine, they think of red wines that are anchored by Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. But, did you know that White Bordeaux AKA Bordeaux Blanc may be the white wine you have always loved but didn't know, because it is anchored by Sauvignon Blanc? That's what we are exploring in this episode, and we are going to find out just what makes it so fabulous. Spoiler Alert! Although you may not have heard about White Bordeaux, you need to add it to your wine list because this wine slaps. And we found two great wines that are reasonably priced that we think you should buy! We'll also teach about some of the fun facts surrounding the wine. For instance, did you know that prior to 1956 60% of the wine made in Bordeaux was white? We bet you didn't! Like a lot of French wines, White Bordeaux is a blend, and the magical blend in Bordeaux Blanc is Sauvignon Blanc, Sémillon, and Muscadelle. So, we'll also tell you why the art of blending is part of the wonder of this wine. Plus we have some wine in the news and a listener interview, so this is an episode you do not want to miss!

Want to request a song? Tell us your rating? Send us a Text Message right now! In this episode of 1001 Songs That Make You Want To Die, we take on WHERE IS MY HUSBAND by RAYE — a song that somehow manages to be chaotic, catchy, and deeply unhinged all at once. We unpack the vocal acrobatics, the theatre-kid energy, and the lyrical panic of a woman sprinting through emotional traffic with zero plan and maximum confidence. Along the way, we ask the important questions: is this genius, is this annoying, or is it both at the same time? Plus, a brutally honest breakdown of the song's backstory, production choices, cultural context, and the inevitable question that defines the show — does this track earn its place on the list, or is it getting off lightly? DUBBY DUBBY is declaring WAR on big Energy!

This week, the Regular Joe's play Monday evening quarterback, providing color commentary on the big sports-ball matchup from this past weekend. Who won and who lost. Did Pepsi score by co-opting polar bears from their competitor Coca-Cola? Did callbacks to 90's hits Jurassic Park and Good Will Hunting work for Xfinity and Dunkin' Donuts? There were a whole lot of AI ads for companies whose names you've already forgotten, more big names than you can count, and more money spent than seems even remotely reasonable. Does it matter? One expert says no. There's also round of What's in the Box, and What's on my Workbench for some project updates and tool tips. Thanks for watching and listening!

Send me a Text Message!In John 5, at the end of the chapter, there's a confrontation between Jesus and the religious leaders of his day. These leaders were scripture experts. They knew it. They memorized it. They carried it with them everywhere they went. They prided themselves on being scripture experts. But they were missing the glorious goal of scripture. What is the glorious goal of scripture? That's what this episode is all about. But let me simply say this,  knowledge of God was not the same as knowing God; loving the scriptures is not the same as loving God; reading God's words is not the same as listening to God. What is the glorious goal of scripture? Encountering the WORD.

Send me a Text Message!In today's episode, we will hear Jesus ask a man, what we might think is the world's dumbest question. Take it easy, I'm not saying that Jesus asked dumb questions. But at first glance, it seems like it. He asks a man who has been an invalid for 38 years, if he wants to be made well. It's a seemingly outrageous question right? Except sometimes it needs to be asked. Sometimes we've gotten used to our brokenness. We become friends with our hopelessness. It becomes part of our identity. So do you want to be made well?Perhaps it's time to say yes.

Send me a Text Message!In the last part of John 4, we find a story. I'm calling it a "seventh hour" story. It's a story of Jesus healing a man's dying son, with just a word, from long distance. The healing took place at the seventh hour. And I imagine that forever after when this family would rehearse God's faithfulness they would share their seventh hour story. A time when God came through even before they knew He came through. A time when they were given a word from Jesus and they responded. So just ask yourself, "what's my seventh hour story?" If I don't have one, perhaps it's because I haven't responded to His Word?

Send me a Text Message!Before we jump into the miracle of John 4, Jesus' second sign. I just want to make sure we understand the connection between Jesus and the Word. This connection goes beyond metaphor into the land of mystical.  It goes beyond symbolic into the land of supernatural.  There is this connection between Jesus, who is called the Word, and the Word which we call our Bible. So everytime we open this book it can be like sitting down with Jesus, no matter what page we are on.  So here's what I want you to do for just a few moments, even before you listen, I want you to picture yourself, with Jesus, wherever you would be the most at ease, walking by a stream in the forest.  Catching up over a grande coffee. And I want you to imagine, listening to, learning from and leaning into... HIS WORDS!And then you gotta listen to me. Sorry! :)

While Alex thinks it's a solid 4-Star card, Dara drops a massive hot take: Star-Lord might be better than Shou-Lao due to his insane synergy with Fin Fang Foom and Grandmaster.Then, they roast the Super Premium card, Magus, agreeing it is "Toxic Doxy" levels of bad and a hard skip (1 Star). They also review Moon Dragon, deciding it's a "Doom 2099" dependent card that falls flat if not played on Turn 2. On the flip side, Dara claims Drax (Avatar of Life) is the best non-Season Pass card of the month, praising its ability to counter Ramp decks.Finally, they open the Mailbag to discuss a wholesome community letter and debate a spicy game design question: Should Marvel Snap introduce a 5-Turn Game Mode to create a true Aggro meta?

Send me a Text Message!Our teaching series at Calvary is unpacking four portraits of a Jesus-apprentice. This episode is my message on courageous leaders. When we love someone more than we love ourselves we do courageous stuff. Courage isn't the absence of fear, it's the presence of heart. And if we define leadership as bossing the best, or even accomplishing the most, we may be settling for false finish lines. Bottom line, our world today needs courageous leadership...and you, every you listening can be a courageous leader!

I used to think reading more books was the goal. Then I encountered a moment in Plato's Protagoras where Socrates warns that what you learn will either help or harm you—and you can't take it back. That changed how I choose what to read. In this episode, I explain how I pick great books, how I avoid wasting time on shallow ideas, and how readers in real life—busy people with jobs and families—can build a reading life that actually makes them wiser. I also share one book recommendation that has deeply shaped my thinking.Send Me a Text Message with Your Questions

Comment on the Show by Sending Mark a Text Message.What would you do if your career was at stake, and your integrity was challenged by the very system you worked for? In this gripping episode of Employee Survival Guide®, Mark Carey unravels the whistleblowing legal saga of Trevor Murray, a strategist at UBS who faced a harrowing integrity dilemma in the cutthroat world of Wall Street. As the pressure mounted to alter his research reports to benefit the trading desk, Murray found himself at a crossroads, ultimately choosing whistleblowing on unethical practices that threatened not just his job, but the very fabric of corporate integrity. This episode takes you on a deep dive into the murky waters of employment law, focusing on pivotal legislation such as the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the Dodd-Frank Act. Over an arduous 14-year journey through various legal battles, Murray's case culminated in a landmark Supreme Court decision that redefined whistleblowing, clarifying that the intent to retaliate does not need to be proven for a case to hold water. But as we celebrate this legal victory, we must also confront the harsh realities faced by whistleblowers. Are the protections offered by the law truly effective, or do they merely exist on paper? Join us as we explore the moral and ethical challenges that arise in a hostile work environment, shedding light on critical issues like employee rights, retaliation, and workplace discrimination. Murray's story raises vital questions about the culture of silence that often pervades corporate America, and the toll that such battles can take on individuals' lives and careers. Through this lens, we examine the broader implications of employment law issues, from severance negotiations to performance improvement plans, and the importance of employee advocacy in navigating workplace dynamics. Whether you're an employee grappling with a toxic work culture, a manager striving for a healthier workplace, or someone interested in the intricacies of employment law, this episode is packed with insights and practical advice.

Forget that boring Provence Rosé everyone else is grabbing for Valentine's Day. We are exposing a secret from the Loire Valley that offers amazing flavor and higher value for your money, and will impress your significant other. It might help you spice things up a bit, too! If you think all pink wine is created equal, think again... because not all Rosés are born the same. In this episode, we dive into Rosé d'Anjou, a "tender" style of wine that is perfect for those who want a hint of sweetness. You'll learn how the Grolleau Noir grape creates a unique experience that pairs perfectly with spicy Asian cuisine or even a Galentines cheese board. We also get into the "mad scientist" side of winemaking, discussing how some producers use reverse osmosis to concentrate their juice and to make a top quality wine. We put two affordable bottles to the test to see if this Loire Valley underdog is the ultimate QPR (Quality to Price Ratio) win for your next date night. Wines reviewed in this episode: 2024 LaCheteau Soupçon de Fruit Rosé d'Anjou and 2024 Famille Bougrier Rose d'Anjou.Send us a Text Message and we'll respond in our next episode!Contact The Wine Pair Podcast - we'd love to hear from you!Visit our website, leave a review, and reach out to us: https://thewinepairpodcast.com/Follow and DM us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thewinepairpodcast/Send us an email: joe@thewinepairpodcast.com

This week the Regular Joes talk TV. Which may not seem all that unusual, but it has been a while since they did a rundown of all the new and returning series in the pipeline for the coming months. And there is a lot of them. From returning favorites like The Boys, For All Mankind and Daredevil: Born Again, to intriguing new offerings like Lanterns, Young Sherlock, and Wonder Man. Speaking of Wonder Man, there is also a brief, mostly spoiler free, discussion of this unconventional new Marvel/Disney+ series which Dave somehow only managed to watch two episodes of. What's with that? The man can knock out three Disney parks in a day, and he can't commit to four hours of a TV series? There's also the usual Random Topics at a round of What's in the Box.

Send me a Text Message!John 4 contains an amazing story full of life-giving themes. It's all about soul-thirst and the hunger of our hearts to live for a worthy mission. It's all about city-revivals and turning the world upside down. It's all about worship and Jesus' mission to find people who will truly worship him.And it's all about sharing the treasure of Jesus with people living in the margins of life. Who might you share that treasure with in the coming days?

Send me a Text Message!In John 4, we find a story of something Jesus "had to do." What is your "have-to-do?" The greek word translated as "had to" is often a word that signifies a divine necessity. Perhaps it was a divine necessity for Jesus to go through Samaria. God had a divine appointment set up for Jesus with a woman in Samaria. So here's the deal. Our story is shaped by our have-to. What I have to do defines me. Jesus was defined by the have-to of Father God. The heart of the Father compelled him to compassion and because of love, he had to share the gospel, the good news. So ask yourself, "What is my have-to?"

Comment on the Show by Sending Mark a Text Message.What happens when corporate ambition turns into a nightmare? In this gripping episode of the Employee Survival Guide®, host Mark Carey takes you on a journey through the shocking story of Matthew Connolly, a former Deutsche Bank employee who faced wrongful prosecution for his alleged involvement in the LIBOR rate manipulation scandal. This tale not only exposes the dark underbelly of corporate investigations but also serves as a cautionary tale of malicious prosecution for every employee navigating the treacherous waters of workplace culture. As Connolly's story unfolds, we witness the devastating impact of being scapegoated (malicious prosecution) by a corporation desperate to protect its own interests. The episode dives deep into Connolly's civil lawsuit against Deutsche Bank for malicious prosecution, where he claims the bank curated evidence to deflect blame from top executives. This raises critical questions about employee rights, corporate responsibility, and the systemic issues that allow such injustices to thrive in our workplaces. Throughout this episode, we explore the mechanics of scapegoating within corporate structures, shedding light on how employees often become collateral damage in the face of legal challenges. What does this mean for workplace dynamics? How do internal investigations affect employee morale and job security? Join us as we dissect these pressing questions and uncover the harsh realities of employment law issues that can lead to wrongful termination and discrimination in the workplace. This episode is a must-listen for anyone who has ever felt the weight of a hostile work environment, faced retaliation, or navigated the complexities of severance negotiations. With insights on employee empowerment and advocacy, we aim to equip you with the knowledge needed to survive and thrive in your career. Whether you're dealing with performance reviews, workplace harassment, or understanding your rights under labor laws, this episode of the Employee Survival Guide® is packed with valuable information and insider tips for employees. As Connolly seeks justice and financial restitution, we invite you to reflect on your own experiences and the broader implications of corporate culture on employee well-being. Tune in to discover how you can protect yourself in an increasingly complex work environment and what steps you can take to ensure your rights are upheld. Don't miss this eye-opening discussion that could change the way you view your job and your rights within the workplace!  If you enjoyed this episode of the Employee Survival Guide please like us on Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn.

Send me a Text Message!Jackie Hill Perry says this about Jesus, “He is so much greater than the greatest thing and so much more glorious than the most glorious glory the eyes could see. Knowing this, He becomes the aim of all our doing.” He is so much greater. As we finish up John 3, the words give us an opportunity to simply ponder the greatness of Jesus and ask (and maybe even answer) the question, "Jesus are you the one?"Because if the answer is yes. I can't think of a more important question to answer. Because if he really is the one, if he really is who he claimed to be, then he is the single most significant person who ever lived (and still lives)! He is preeminent in everything.

Send Katie a Text Message!! If you've ever found yourself thinking, “I swear I've already answered this,” while a team member pings you yet again, this episode is for you.Today, I'm unpacking one of the most exhausting leadership moments I see with designers — when your team keeps asking the same questions over and over, and it starts to make you wonder if you're doing something wrong as a leader. I want to say this clearly right out of the gate: this isn't a sign that you're failing. It's feedback. And when you understand what that feedback is actually pointing to, everything starts to shift.In this episode, I talk honestly about why repeated questions usually aren't a communication problem or a documentation problem — even though that's where most of us go first. More SOPs, more explanations, or even questioning whether you hired the wrong person often feels like the logical next step. But in my experience, that approach only reinforces the dynamic that's burning you out.What your team is really asking — whether they realize it or not — is whether they're allowed to decide without you.We dive into the idea of decision ownership and why so many creative leaders accidentally hold onto it longer than they should. I share how being the fixer, the closer, and the safety net can quietly train your team to outsource judgment back to you — even when they're capable of more. I also walk you through the leadership shift from “doing” to “designing,” and how your role as CEO is less about approving every choice and more about building confident decision-makers.I also get very practical in this episode. I share how we've handled this inside my own firm, including why we clarified decision lanes, created clearer reporting structures, limited unnecessary visibility in project management software, and normalized thoughtful mistakes instead of punishing them. We talk about why mistakes — when made inside clear guardrails — actually build confidence instead of eroding it.You'll hear how hiring ties directly into this, why you're not hiring extra hands but judgment, and how we've refined our hiring process over the years to make sure people are truly set up to succeed. I also explain why the 90-day review period is one of the most powerful tools you can use to build trust, clarity, and alignment on your team — without fear or drama.We also talk about seasons. Sometimes the issue isn't that someone is a bad hire — it's that their season has changed. Learning how to recognize that, have honest conversations, and adjust roles accordingly is part of real leadership. I share a recent example from my own team where a simple conversation created massive relief, clarity, and momentum for everyone involved.And if this conversation hits close to home and you want help untangling it, I offer a free 15-minute problem-solving session where we focus on one real leadership challenge in your business. No pitch, no pressure — just clarity. You can book that at fixmydesignbiz.com.As always, remember: your business should be working for you, not you working for it. If that's starting to feel out of alignment, it's time to redesign how leadership shows up inside your firConnect with Katie LinkedInBusiness Strategy Sessions for Interior Designers Free Resources for scaling your interior design firmWebsite

When will you be truly satisfied with your novel? How will you know when you've succeeded?How will you know when you're done?Will it be when you LOVE your book? When you stop cringing as you read it? When you can't think of a single change left to make?When beta readers rave about it? When they tell you the romantic scenes made them swoon and the funny scenes made them laugh, the scary scenes gave them nightmares and the sad scenes made them cry?When a reader tells you your book impacted them profoundly? That it changed the way they think about something that matters?Or will it be when an agent requests your full manuscript, then returns with an offer of representation? When an editor offers you a book deal? When your book is published and you see it on bookstore shelves?One of the most difficult editing decisions you'll face is determining when your book is done. When you have finished, when it's ready to share with the world, when this project you've poured so much of your heart into is complete.In this episode, I'll help you uncover the factors that matter most to you.You'll learn:How most writers I talk to define “success”What agents are REALLY looking forWhy you want and NEED external validation—and when external validation becomes harmful, not helpfulWhat you TRULY want for your bookAnd more!Calling your book “done” will always be a challenging decision. After all, art is never finished, only abandoned.But when you know what you value most, you can chase it with clarity and determination, and celebrate when you reach it.Links mentioned in the episode:Interested in working with me?

Send me a Text Message!John 3:16 is probably the most famous verse in scripture. And not only is it famous, it's great! It gives a one-sentence tweetable summary of the good news that leads to a great life on the Jesus way. It's the beginning of our journey on the way of Jesus, the very beginning. And what is at the beginning? God's love. Like I said in the last episode, "you are God's beloved masterpiece." And few short verses describe the love part of beloved masterpiece, than John 3:16.You are relentlessly pursued by a lavishly gracious God who is all-in on you. And just so  you don't miss it. You aren't the only one. In fact, you probably have an enemy or two, who is loved like that by God, as well. I needed to hear that! Who knows what you might discover in this greatest, most famous verse?

Carnivore diet recovery takes center stage as Bella Ma (Steak and Butter Gal) returns to share her transformation from sick vegan to thriving carnivore. After six years on a plant-based diet that left her without a period, covered in cystic acne, and constantly starving, Bella made a dramatic overnight switch to eating only animal foods.

Send us a Text Message about the podcastWhat if the antidote to polarization isn't a louder argument, but a quieter practice of showing up, listening, and serving together? Grantley sits down with Jim Koppel—educator, coalition-builder, and cofounder of Strategic Applications International and Servant Forge—whose career stretches from late-night ride-alongs with a gang unit to shaping national prevention policy and facilitating 21st century policing reforms. The thread through it all: proximity changes outcomes. When people meet face to face, when training centers de-escalation and culture, and when youth have real jobs and mentors, communities get safer.We unpack the five protective factors that keep young people on track—hope, caring adults, skills, control, and altruism—and why employment quietly powers them all. Jim shares what 20,000 listening-session voices taught his team about fear, bias, and structural gaps like language access that distort incident reports and deepen mistrust. We also examine how the Minneapolis Police Department reframed training around the sanctity of life, showing how policy and practice can diverge across agencies and why curriculum quality matters as much as length.Then we pivot to the Freedom Fast, a civic invitation rooted in American history and embraced across faiths and the nonreligious alike: six monthly fasts on the fourth leading to July 4. Fasting here is broad—food, social media, or anything that creates room to reflect. The aim is simple and demanding: pause, relate, and serve beyond the headlines. As states consider resolutions and communities pilot models, we make the case that a more perfect union is built in small, repeatable acts—on front porches, in plazas, at the mailbox.If this resonates, subscribe, share with a neighbor, and leave a review to help others find the show.

What happens when the medication that's finally helping you is no longer affordable?If you've had success on Mounjaro or Zepbound but need to switch to a more affordable option like Ozempic for maintenance, you're probably wondering: will this actually work? And if semaglutide didn't help you before, the idea of going back can feel risky, especially when you're worried about regaining weight, increased food noise, or losing the progress you've worked so hard for.In this episode, I break down when switching medications for cost makes sense, when it's likely to backfire, and what your options are if semaglutide is the only affordable option. Referenceshttps://www.orchardpond.com/The 30/30 Program (Sept 2026 registration now open)Audio Stamps01:08 - Update on Dr. Rentea's retreat planning, plus her new favorite granola discovery.05:03 -  Listener question: Switching from Mounjaro to Ozempic for long-term maintenance due to cost.05:59 - When it makes sense to switch medications for affordability (and when it doesn't).08:03 -  If semaglutide is your only option: combining GLP-1s with oral medications.10:48 - Oral (daily) Wegovy vs injections: does steadier dosing actually help?11:40 - Why no medication is perfect and working with the right clinician is key.12:58 - The real reason behind this work: preventing disease, not chasing a number on the scale.14:05 - September 30/30 program update: early registration + monthly Q&A access.All of the information on this podcast is for general informational purposes only.
